The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

A tense, narrative-driven horror experience that blends first-person puzzle-solving with a deeply woven story about obsession and grief.

What players say

Players say it is a very short free horror teaser with a decent atmospheric setup and an interesting story, though puzzles are basic and the camera control feels odd. Some note underwhelming scares and a lack of fullscreen support.
